Sunday Stash Report

The week's Stash Report finds me in a very snowy Mammoth Lakes California. DH and I are on our annual January trip to get in some skiing (and sewing) for the week. It has been blizzard conditions all day today with a couple more feet of snow piling up. We are expecting more tomorrow, so I should be able to get more sewing in! We have not seen this much snow here in many years.

View from our condo.
No finishes for the week, and just a slight add from shopping at Road to California Quilt show last week. More on that in my next post. Numbers are below. Check out more at Patchwork Times.

Used this week: 0 yards.
Used YTD:  0 yards.
Purchased this week: 1.0 yards.
Purchased YTD: 5.5 yards.
Net Fabric Used YTD: -5.5 yards.

Have a great week!

Stash Report

No finishes yet, but getting close on En Provence.  A couple of additions for a class I will be taking this week at Road to California Quilt Show. It is one of my UFO called "A Tarted up Pineapple" The class is with Janna Thomas from Bloc Loc Rulers. These rulers have become favorites of mine. I will be making mine in pinks, I was thinking valentines. I am planning on a table runner size.

Design Wall Monday

Progress on En Provence! Three blocks complete along with one of the sashing strips. I like what I have so far and will be working on the blocks and sashing all week.


All of my UFO's for 2017 are now posted and you can check them out on the tab above..
As usually an aggressive group of quilts to finish this year. In between making all these quilt tops, I hope to get a few of my quilts quilted and bound.

Design Wall Monday


En Provence

The first Design Wall of 2017 finds me working on the Bonnie Hunter Mystery Quilt-En Provence. The Big Revel was yesterday and you can see it here. I had thought it would end up looking very purple with all the dark purple's that were used, but was pleasantly surprised that it did not. I really like how it turned out. 

Here are all the pieces so far for En Provence.
One more set of hourglass units and then time to put the blocks together. This may be my first finish for 2017!

Go to Patchwork Times for more Design Walls. Happy Quilting!

Sunday Stash Report/ Happy 2017



Hope you are all enjoying your New Year's Day! 

A quick look back on 2016. Eleven quilts were added to the quilting Que, with 41 total yards used. Over 60 quilts were quilted on the Longarm, along with 8 of my own! Not bad overall, but hope to use up a little more of the stash this year, and get a few more of my quilt tops quilted.

I have started putting together the UFO list for 2017, with a couple of carryovers from 2016. As usual I have an ambitious list of projects waiting to be completed. I will try to link up each week with Judy over at Patchwork Times each week for the Sunday Stash Report and Design Wall Monday, so you can check out what I am doing and see what others are working on. 

Here are the final numbers for 2016.  Numbers will reset to 0 starting today.

Used this week: 0 yards.
Used YTD: 152 yards.
Purchased this week: 0 yards.
Purchased YTD: 111 yards.
Net Fabric Used YTD: 41 yards.


Judy has also put together a  2017 UFO Challenge. She will be picking a Number from 1-12 each month to work on. I will be posting my UFO's later this week as I put them all together. This is a great way to get motivated to get at least a few of those UFO's complete.

Here's to a Happy and Healthy New Year!
